Lucky 13, week 11

1. TT - I am humbled now...TT should be #1 after dismantling a very good OkSt team. I should've never doubted them...I am so wrong! (they better beat OU now!)
2. Florida - only drop because of TT's dominance and harder schedule so far. UF v TT would be the best NC game I think.
3. Texas - bounced back very nicely after having the NC game gift-wrapped for them and failing to claim it! Should win their next two and end up with only one loss.
4. Okla - They are looking better and better each week. If they beat TT, who gets to play in the Big-12 bowl? Highest ranked right...so if they can beat TT and UT they can get to the NC! Yeah, that won't be hard to do!
5. 'Bama - that was a solid win for them. I didn't think they would do it, but they beat a good LSU team on the road. They seem to play well when it matters most, hopefully that trend continues when they showdown with the Gators. (assuming they get past Auburn and Miss St.)
6. Utah - HUGE win against TCU. Although it was more like TCU lost the game then Utah won it. (the missed FG's) But UT drove the length of the field with 2 minutes left in the game against the nation's best D...pretty impressive. As long as they can get past a huge road test with SDSU (total TIC) the showdown in SLC is set with BYU and a chance for the MWC and BCS!
7. USC - continue to be unimpressed by them. The skill is there, but they just don't have "it" this year. They better pray OSU loses or we could be looking at no USC in a BSC bowl!!!
8. Ohio St - just what I thought, they destroyed NW. I think they'll lay the smackdown on Ill and Michigan, which means they'll get the Rose Bowl again and hopefully a rematch (and I believe a victory) against USC.
9. Georgia - Still manage to win games, but I haven't ever been super convinced by these guys. Beating Auburn on the road and a quick, talented GT team will help me feel better about this ranking.
10. OkSt - brutal schedule, great team. They should still go to the BCS this year IMO, and would give any team all they could handle.
11. Missouri - Offense still really good, they should finish 10-2 which is a great year considering how tough the Big-12 is.
12. TCU - Why couldn't they have played like this against BYU!!! Should have won that game...still a great team...proof of how tough MWC is this year.
13. BYU - the next two weeks will, IMO, not only be a defining point in BYU's season this year but could be culmination of years of change around that program and set the stage for a historic year next year. Beating AFA and Utah on the road should boost them into top 12.

PS Penn State does not deserve to be ranked anywhere near the top 10. No top 5 team trying to prove their NC worth lays an egg on the road against a team whose previous best win was against the lowly Badgers.
